JOCKNEY Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Great choice Jes The Oxford is a favourite here on BM, you might need to borrow chairs from the neighbours for all the people following this one. Cheers Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 welcome along and another unusual choice. I was a bit excited and confused (a common thing) when i was the first photo...a RAAF Oxford?? But then the second one sorted that all out. Again an interesting scheme for a will known aircraft. The model looks to be quite nice, a long way from the old Frog one (my father built one of those when they first came out). Well good luck with the build, it does look like there will be some very interested follows, look forward to seeing her in the gallery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Touvdal Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 Started on this one tonight, it is a typical short run set, not the crispiest mouldings, some flash need cleaning up. They have included some resin parts, nice engines. I would have liked ifthey had made the engine cowlings in one peace in stead of two halves, wich is not the best fit. Wing fit is ok,.

Col. Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 (edited) That the Danish used this type is news to me but delighted to see you've picked such a lovely machine as one of your subjects Jes Edited January 25, 2020 by Col. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Touvdal Posted January 24, 2020 Author Share Posted January 24, 2020 Some futher progress, fit is resonably, some putty will be needed. cheers Jes 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 nice, a thin bit of stretched sprue would fill those gaps nicely and help strengthen those joins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbit Leader Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 This Oxford kit actually looks pretty good Jes and your making very quick and excellent progress so far. Not long ago I was gifted a Tasman Oxford and that is definitely not a 'crisp' kit! Cheers and best of luck.. Dave 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Touvdal Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 Fit is as can be expected for a short run set. So some putty is needed as can be seen. So a bit of work ahead 🤔 Cheers Jes 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 A little work yes Jes but it'll be worthwhile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
